"Espanyol" head coach is unhappy with the timing of the match against "Sevilla".
Idman.Biz reports that the 12th round of La Liga started at 21:00 local time, 00:00 Baku time.
"I'm talking in general, not just about "Espanyol". Monday matches are bad for football and the league. It's just common sense. If we want great games and full stadiums, then it's stupid to schedule a game for 21:00 on a Monday when people have to get up early to go to work the next day."
There are also things we need to learn from other leagues. Playing in winter and summer is not the same. It's terribly cold at 21:00 in winter.
In Germany or the Premier League, matches start at 15:30. The Premier League is an example of making money, and in my opinion, it's not because they play on Fridays or Mondays. Someone should take a close look at themselves.
It's common sense. For example, it's one thing to watch "Cultural Leonesa" play in Leon at 16:00 in January, and it's quite another to watch it at 21:00. I really envy it when I see stadiums full in the Premier League or Bundesliga2," said Manolo Gonzalez.
